Michael Hanake meets the Blair Witch Project in Kim Gok's Exhausted, a vicious kick in the pants to everyone in the audience, all in the name of "style." A man meets a mute woman, and as any reasonable person would do in such a situation, makes her his prostitute. But the pimping is the least of our problems. As we get exhausted by the grainy faux-16mm camerawork, the film gets increasingly deranged. The closest thing we get to a sympathetic character is the pimp, simply because he's got too much self-respect to fuck a mute whore. Everyone else is either a gory mess, or a gory mess in disguise. Even the prostitute, which even a thug like Lars von Trier would make likeable, comes off as a delirious scary woman whose shrieks strike like blows to the jugular.
Kim Gok has seemingly abandoned the Marxist critiques of his short films, going instead for mindless brutality which culminates in an endless bloody freak-show involving, among other things, a pair of scissors going where pairs of scissors should not go. In the middle of the bloodbath, we get an extended long take of the beaten prostitute's near-dead face, but it does not elicit sympathy or pity. In fact, images of the victim only make us shy away in shock. (Indeed, the extended sequence led to continuous walk-outs during the Pusan screening.) The long take invites us to stare, but it assumes we're as sadistic as the victimizer (and the film) is. Meanwhile the sound-effects (mostly a rumbling bassline that shakes the theater) pulsates with pure wickedness. With Hanake, shock creates reflection, which asks that we be critical. Here, we only want to escape. I suppose Exhausted has some virtues; the shots of drilling machines and factories provide a mesmerizing phallic backdrop to the pimp and prostitute's pursuits. But everything else hurts too much. At least Kim Ki-duk lets us breathe. Exhausted makes Bad Guy look like Lady and the Tramp. (asiaarts.ucla.edu)
6.1/10 这节奏倒是不拖泥带水，演出效果跟独立恐怖游戏一样简单直接，就是还是太温柔了，恐怖度比不了昆池岩。
3星半。氛围感不错，关着灯晚上一个人看还是可以的。虽然也是废弃楼的概念，但是这个穿插了时空交错的元素
穿越 阴阳 幽闭 既有墓地邂逅 潜伏 也有两个月亮的影子 最后四不像
恐怖片还要啥理性？恐怖片还要他妈的什么理性！
小说家的书面推理与拯救，能理解作者的用心，但还是蛮无聊的。
时空重叠的概念挺好，“我不知道我死了”的梗虽然泛滥但用的好的话也行。不过真的对男主喜欢不起来，没塑造好，整成了一个无能又爱装的人，时不时摆个pose、撂个狠话，再聊两句哲学的，其实菜鸟一个，啥也没准备就闷头往死路上狂奔，打架也不行，最后不出意外的把自己赔上了。
真的
从男主被铁锹打一下，然后听到卷发妹的声音开始，男主就死了！故事告诉我们废话多害死人！直接就一降魔杵，完事儿！
剧情《两个月亮》+《昆池岩》+《怪奇宅》。混乱的空间，昏暗的老楼，致命的追杀，恐惧的呻吟，真的是视觉享受。
藤原龙也用圆脸演绎复杂性从不让人失望，土屋太凤一身正气，总有种真诚感。
电影构思很好，三个时间线。但是剪辑混乱，叙事不明。一遍很难看懂，也比较烧脑。
求求导演了多打点光不会死 比起氛围感基础诉求是看得清 韩国鬼片的通病了 就是看不清~~~ 剧情也没有吸引人~~
法国人，你老老实实地拍Eiffel怎么攻克难关修塔，比你加这么多感情戏要好得多，白浪费这么好的题材了
认真看就输了，估计导演自己都没搞清楚编剧编得什么鬼
看完有点难受……感觉是寂静岭+两个月亮+昆池岩的大杂烩。恐怖片不好好搞basic的东西 非要加入人家烧脑推理时间重叠干嘛…立意还是ok的，就是无逻辑不清晰，讲的人表述不清，看的人一头雾水，别问男主死在哪年，问就是导演自己也不知道。不要因为火了一个signal就一直玩时间线的梗吧 有点疲劳
挺烧脑的 对于男主是何时over的 目前看到四种答案 1 1990年被管理员拍死 2 想要用金刚杵捅死自己解脱的时候被管理员拍死 3来修道院的路上出车祸死 4影片一开始就已经死 。可怜的男主 我希望编剧脑洞大开出续作让光明战胜黑暗
埃菲尔铁塔，讲了20分钟的塔，120分钟古斯塔夫埃菲尔爱情故事，感情戏看得我好尴尬，他们抠床单，我用脚趾抠出一座铁塔。（1.5，多出来0.5给温柔的女儿，爱了爱了）
无法抗拒的吸引。怀疑，确认，甜蜜。设计，搭建，工程师。丢失又重逢的爱情。完美落日。权衡取舍爱情为理想，心疼且幸福。300米高。A字型。
女主角给我舒淇的感觉 至于剧情什么的 一般 而且女主后嫁的那个老公感觉比男主更帅些
基本合格，但是爱情和事业的两条线都没处理的太好。
